A Conversation With Sen. Jeanne Shaheen

The United States Senate is closely divided in favor of the GOP, but Democrats aren’t sitting silently on the sidelines. Among those Democrats is Senator Jeanne Shaheen. She recently announced she’ll run for a third term in 2020. We talk about the impending conclusion of the Mueller investigation, President Trump's recent national emergency declaration, as well as her take on Trump's upcoming second summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

New Hampshire Sen. Jeanne Shaheen says the Trump administration must carefully consider how it would prevent an arms race in the absence of a nuclear arms treaty with Russia, and whether that includes negotiating a new treaty with China.

Shaheen, a Democrat and member of the Senate Foreign Relations and Armed Services committees, said Friday if the United States is to withdraw, "there must be a plan in place to prevent proliferation."
